Inferno

The choice to buy and read Dan Brown's Inferno was an easy one to make. Having read and enjoyed The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons. Based on previous browsing and purchases, Amazon alerted me to the release of Brown's latest release.

Inferno is the fourth installment of Brown's Robert Langdon series. This novel once again follows the fictitious symbologist as he follows a series of clues and riddles hidden in ancient art. This time, he is in Florence, following a mystery related to Dante's Inferno and racing the clock to stop a severe threat.

While this was an enjoyable book, I did not find it as intriguing as the previous Robert Langdon stories. There did not seem to be as much depth in the clues and riddle in the art and architecture of the story. However, this might have had a more twisted plot line than some of the previous novels and did manage to stray from the formula that Brown had started to create for the series.

Overall, it was fun and certainly worth a read.
